Cutting board by order

Hello everyone!This is the first cutting board I make by order. I had some freedom in the design and choice of wood. Just some tips were specifically asked.Most of the wood is algarrobo. Separators are Lapacho and cedar the sides.To Reinforce the union sides with glue and some small dowels of 3 mm. Everything else is just stuck with glue.It was not easy jigsaw figures originally working as an inch in thickness, and algarrobo is hardwood.A while ago bought a second-hand router mainly had in mind to use it as I saw several on LJ. So I made a lateral support system, a tray slide which ran the router …. and use it as a planer. Really valuable investment and am very happy with it. Thereby achieving a uniform thickness bonded timber.Sanding to 240 and finished with beeswax.The system handles it with old horseshoes, I did not like but was a specific request. As wil not bet on there and also make more space needed to store the board.Thanks for looking!Greeting for all.

I really like this project ! Very nice looking timbers and quite a clever design. Love the Horse !Very creative work and finnished well.. I like the Horse shoes as well makes it really interesting well done Gerardo…BazzA.

Thanks guys for the comments.SI Martin…el tema del cepillado es todo un problema. Los filos y regulado de las cepilladoras se que no es nada sencillo. Tambien hay que aclarar que si vas con una tabla de 30 cm de ancho no es facil conseguir una maquina que alcance a pasar. Por todo ello me decidio el router. Lo tenia en la mira hace tiempo, y me salio uno de segunda mano, asi que aproveche!Yes Dwight, Lapacho is hardwood.Yes Jim, I have a scroll saw. B & D BT1650. The buy some time and use primarily to achieve a straight cut. Wood is a challenge of an inch. But perhaps best this, that those who have the soft wood and hard streaks.Well … it seems that everyone likes the look of the horseshoes. But the question is: how to grab the wood so reliable and will last over time and use?Greetings to all from Argentina!
